COLUMBUS, Ohio (March 9, 2010)--Ohio State University says an employee shot two coworkers early Tuesday morning in a campus maintenance building and then killed himself.

One of the two workers died. The other is in the hospital.

University Police Chief Paul Denton identified the gunman as Nathanial Brown, 51, who was a custodial employee.

Denton says Brown recently received a poor performance evaluation, but he declined to say if that was a motive for the shooting.

No students were hurt.

Denton said Brown was pronounced dead at Ohio State University Medical Center several hours after the shooting, which was first reported at 3:30 a.m. Tuesday.

One of the victims, building services manager Larry Wallington, 48, died at the scene.

The other worker was hospitalized in stable condition.
